Things don't look good, that's for sure. I, too, am getting ready for the day when I go to log in here and find something else instead. that would be a shame because there is a potential for greatness here. We have a situation with some uploaders that seem to insist on putting up material that is copyright and I think they are doing this willfully. I've tried posting alerts in the forums and e-mailing the Archive directly but so far nothing seems to work. The material is still there. If staff doesn't get off the toilet and start taking care of this situation soon, forget this Google thing, they're going to lose everything. We could lose the site over this. Please, staff, for God's sake, WAKE UP!

The thought crossed my mind that maybe the IA is in negotiations to be taken over by Google.

Ya never know...

Something like that could happen with no warning whatsoever.

I'm trying to download anything I want in case it all just goes away someday.

Luckily, only a few films left for me to snag.

It's not the copyright works that worry me the most, it's what would happen if these videos really aren't being moderated at all.

What happens if people start uploading hardcore pornography, or something much MUCH worse? Is there anything to stop this happening?
